EXHAUST PIPE INSTALLATION


  1. INSTALL FRONT EXHAUST PIPE ASSEMBLY


    1. A01DWJ9

      Using a vernier caliper, measure the free length of the compression spring.

      Minimum length
      40 mm (1.57 in.)

      If the free length is less than the minimum, replace the compression spring.

    2. Install the front pipe to the pipe support.

    3. A01DYGME01

      Install a new gasket to the outlet pipe.

      Note


      • Be careful with the installation direction of the gasket.


      • Do not reuse the gasket.


      • To ensure a proper seal, do not use the front pipe to force the gasket onto the outlet pipe.

      Tech Tips

      Using a plastic-faced hammer, uniformly strike the gasket so that the gasket and outlet pipe are properly fit.

    4. Install the front pipe with the 2 compression springs and 2 bolts. Alternately tighten the bolts in several passes.

      Torque:
      43 N*m  { 438 kgf*cm, 32 ft.*lbf }

      CAUTION:

      Do not reuse the gasket.

  2. INSTALL CENTER EXHAUST PIPE ASSEMBLY


    1. Install the center pipe to the 3 pipe supports.

    2. Install a new gasket and the center pipe to the front pipe with the 2 bolts and 2 nuts. Alternately tighten the bolts in several passes.

      Torque:
      48 N*m  { 489 kgf*cm, 35 ft.*lbf }

      CAUTION:

      Do not reuse the gasket.

  3. INSTALL TAILPIPE ASSEMBLY


    1. Install the tailpipe to the pipe support.

    2. Install a new gasket and the tailpipe to the center pipe with the 2 bolts and 2 nuts. Alternately tighten the bolts in several passes.

      Torque:
      48 N*m  { 489 kgf*cm, 35 ft.*lbf }

      CAUTION:

      Do not reuse the gasket.

  4. CHECK FOR EXHAUST GAS LEAKS

    If gas is leaking, tighten the problem areas to stop the leak. Replace damaged parts as necessary.
